Prayer focus - Unity

Scripture - “I am in them and you are in me. May they experience such perfect unity that the world will know that you sent me and that you love them as much as you love me.” - John 17:23

Devotion - The church must walk in unity before the world sees revival. The greatest testament to the world about God is not a message preached, a food box given out, or a benevolence check written. Although those are all great things… the world will undoubtedly know that The Father sent His only Son when Christian brothers and sisters walk in perfect unity. In all honesty, why would a divided group of people who do not know God be drawn to join another divided group of people that claim to know Him? The enemy has a hay day in a world where the Church can’t get on the same page. Satan isn’t nervous about our religious efforts or whatever self-manufactured things we do to “get God to move.” Unity is what God stands at attention for, and unity makes the ruler of this world, satan, shiver with torment. When the Church walks in perfect unity the world will be turned upside down. A person of unity would reflect the characteristics of Christ: humble, serving, sacrificing, loving, full of grace, and full of truth. Gossip or slander could never be found coming out of His mouth.

Reflection - Am I a person that walks with integrity and displays the characteristics of being in unity?

Prayer - Jesus, help me have a united heart. Help me be united with other believers to reflect your Son to a lost world.
